Right... having NOT eaten pate for the past 26 weeks.... I found this on another site.... Pates Its okay to eat: Meat pastes in jars Tinned pate; pasteurised, vacuum-packed pate; UHT treated pate Pasteurised pate in tubes (except liver pate) Its best to avoid: All fresh pates (meat, fish and vegetable) All liver products So... do you think its ok... to have stuff from Tesco's or M&S thats pre-packed?? OR are u stil going to not? I'm a bit confused.... x
Im confused aswell!! I would probably scrutinise the labels and look out for anything that confirmed the pate was pasteurised, vacuum-packed pate; UHT treated pate.
I love pate too, but one quote isn't enough to make me change my mind. Any more info on where this came from? Would love to read more...
It was only on here.. not on the Dept of Heatlh tho http://www.babyworld.co.uk/information/ ... t_safe.asp xx
I would still steer well clear. Liver pates have vit A which should be avoided at all times. Can't see how if pate is pasturised this would make any difference at the vit A will still be there?! I have eaten quite a few things that perhaps I shouldn't have during this pregnancy, but pate and mouldy cheeses are the 2 things that I won't compromise on.... Personal choice at the end of the day I guess.
Good point..about the Vit A. I suppose another few months won't make so much difference ay... Better to be safe than sorry. THanks for your comments ladies x
